Whether it’s a hand-drawn visual novel or a pixel-based RPG, if it tells a story that matters — you’ll find it here.

Weekly Feature
This Week’s Journey
‘’Between Stars and Shadows” – A Tale of Loss in a Post-Earth Colony
(Summary)
- Each week, we highlight a carefully selected indie adventure game that stands out for its emotional storytelling, immersive world-building, or unique design. These features go beyond surface-level coverage — we provide in-depth impressions, breakdowns of key themes, visual showcases, and direct conversations with the game’s creators.
(Featured Game Overview)
- Between Stars and Shadows is a hand-painted, narrative-driven exploration game that unfolds in a crumbling orbital colony decades after Earth’s collapse. You play as Nyra, a memory archivist unraveling encrypted personal journals left behind by colonists who mysteriously vanished. The game challenges you to make moral decisions about what truths to preserve — and which to erase.
